History

The original East High School was open from 1925 to 1998, when it was converted to a middle school. The middle school closed following the 2006 winter quarter. A new building reopened as a high school in 2007, following the closing and consolidation of Rayen High School and Woodrow Wilson High School.

In its first incarnation, East's athletic teams were known as the Sunrisers, from 1925 to 1949. In 1950, the mascot was changed to the Golden Bears. When the school was preparing to re-open in 2007, students voted on what to name their athletic teams, and they decided on the Panthers, to the dismay of some alumni who wanted to see the Golden Bears resurrected. However, in 2017, the name was reverted to Golden Bears, and the school colors were changed from the updated light blue/silver back to navy and gold.^[3]
